Happy Girl

Chapter 73 Despicable means?

Chen Yu is used to pondering the emperor's mind. Seeing the emperor's face at this time, he knew that the emperor was suspicious, and quickly explained: "Of course I fought against that thief before. He is a habitual offender. The court ordered several times to pursue him. None of them succeeded, and this is not the first time I have personally pursued him.”

Hearing this, the emperor looked relieved and said with a smile: "Chen Aiqing has really worked hard to keep my capital safe."

After hearing this, Lan Yan slandered in her heart: "This super treacherous minister turned his crimes into achievements with two words. He really has some skills." On the surface, he echoed the emperor's words, saying: "Your Majesty is really a saint, Lord Chen Hou Lan Yan admires her hard work and great achievements from the bottom of her heart."

Chen Yu snorted and said, "I don't dare to take what Miss Lan Wu said. If Miss Lan Wu didn't jump out suddenly today, the thief might have been caught by us. But now, he is still rampant in the market, and he is likely to commit crimes again. Several major cases of murder and arson."

The emperor scolded: "Yes, Lan Aiqing, what you did today was too reckless."

Lan Yan said: "Your Majesty, forgive me, Lan Yan knows it's wrong."

The emperor laughed and said, "It's good to know your mistakes. Chen Aiqing and Lan Aiqing have already admitted their mistakes, let's see..."

Chen Yu's heart skipped a beat. What does the emperor mean... just let this woman who is in the way go?Isn't this too cheap for her?
He said: "Your Majesty, it's okay to work hard for the ministers and the soldiers. It is the duty of the ministers to guard the safety of the capital. But if everyone behaves like Miss Lan Wu, wouldn't the capital be in chaos?"

The emperor nodded and said: "Well, what Chen Aiqing said is indeed true."

This emperor is really adhering to the doctrine of the golden mean. He speaks smoothly on both sides and keeps a smiling face. No one wants to offend. He looks like someone... Thinking in her heart, Lan Yan unconsciously glanced at the standing Li Yunqi beside the emperor.

At this time, Li Yunqi was standing there with the old god on the ground, without the slightest expression on his face, and his joy and anger could not be seen.

The emperor went on to say: "That's all right. Lan Shuyuan will delay Chen Dadu's handling of the case and fine her salary for one year. Chen Aiqing should have no objection."

Lan Yan snorted in her heart, this emperor really knows how to behave. It was obviously you who punished me, but now you ask this Chen Yu and put all the responsibility for the fine on Chen Yu. This man is just like the son he raised. , just like a smiling tiger.

Chen Yudao: "Your Majesty's tactic, as a minister, I must be convinced, and I dare not have any objections." In fact, he scolded in his heart, causing him to run away from his enemy, but he was only fined for one year's salary. also.

The emperor gave a "hmm", nodded with a smile, and said: "This matter is over, if there is nothing else, let's all step down."

Lan Yan and Chen Yu kowtowed in thanks and retreated.

Seeing that Lan Yan came out safely, Liu Yizi let out a long breath.She stepped forward to meet Lan Yan, and followed her out of the Meridian Gate, but unexpectedly ran into Princess Li Xiangyu at the gate of the palace, and Lan Yan's defeated general Xu Le was standing not far away.

However, apart from these two people, there is also a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, with a slender figure and a gentle appearance.

"That's Xu Tianyun, the eldest son of Marquis Jingyi." Liu Yizi introduced her in a low voice.

Relying on the power of the ancient universe, Lan Yan discovered that Xu Tianyun had entered the late stage of the true energy realm, and the true energy in his dantian was much purer than hers.

As soon as Xu Le saw Lan Yan, she felt ashamed and angry.

Back then, he was a warrior in the late stage of Yuan Qi Realm, but he was defeated by this girl, which made him afraid to show up in front of Princess Xiangyu for several days.Not only that, he lost the Beast Yuan Dan as a reward from his father and was severely scolded by his father without saying a word. He was also ridiculed by his brothers and sisters at home.

"Brother, that's Lan Yan." Xu Le pointed at Lan Yan with his chin, and there was a sneer on the corner of his mouth that was not noticed.

Xu Tianyun turned around to look, and was immediately stunned by Lan Yan's world-famous appearance. However, when he thought about Lan Yan's identity, he suppressed his thoughts.This is not only because Lan Yan is the established crown princess, but also because her family background is far from comparable to that of Princess Xiangyu in front of her.

So, he was just astonished for a moment, and immediately turned his attention to Princess Xiangyu, and said with a smile: "Miss Lan Wu is indeed as beautiful as the legend, but compared with the princess, she is far from her."

Li Xiangyu snorted secretly when she heard this, and said to herself, "I was almost taken away by Lan Yan's beauty just now, but now I say that she is far different from me, it's a typical mistake."

Xu Le also agreed: "Yes, I also have this idea. It's a pity that I was defeated by Lan Yan. Otherwise, I would definitely defeat this woman and give a good sigh of relief for the princess."

Li Xiangyu was too lazy to pay attention to these hypocritical brothers, and was about to go back to the palace, but suddenly he heard Xu Tianyun say: "Oh? How did she offend the princess?"

Xu Le said: "Brother has just returned to Kyoto. He must not know yet that Miss Lan Wu accepted the princess challenge and actually used despicable means to win the princess. It is really infuriating. Otherwise, why would I ask her to fight?"

Xu Tianyun raised his brows immediately when he heard this, and said, "What? How could this woman behave like this?"

"Yeah, big brother, do you think we'll just let her bully the princess like this?" Xu Le said fearlessly, and kept fanning the flames.

Li Xiangyu temporarily dismissed the idea of ​​returning to the palace, and wanted to see what the two brothers wanted to do.

When Xu Tianyun saw the princess looking at him with big watery eyes, his chest was full of pride, he immediately slapped his chest, and said: "Second brother, you are right, the princess is such a wonderful person, how can she be bullied by such a rude and despicable woman?" ?Princess, this matter is on my shoulders, and I will definitely vent my anger on you." After speaking, he walked towards Lan Yan boldly.

Li Xiangyu wanted to drink Xu Tianyun away, but suddenly she remembered what Yan Ruohai had said to her before, and also recalled the scene when Yan Ruohai and Lan Yan were riding together and chatting happily that day, and she felt very uncomfortable. His eyes turned red unconsciously, and he thought to himself: "Lan Yan, how are you better than me?" He swallowed the words that reached his lips, wanting to see Lan Yan's joke.

Lan Yan had already walked in front of her carriage and was about to get into the carriage when she suddenly heard a person shouting loudly: "Miss Lan Wu!"

Lan Yan was startled for a moment, then turned around and found that it was Xu Tianyun whom she had never met before, and asked curiously: "Master Xu, what do you want to do?"

Xu Tianyun said: "I heard that you defeated Princess Xiangyu with despicable means a few days ago?"

What does it mean to win Princess Xiangyu by despicable means?Lan Yan sneered in her heart, glanced at Li Xiangyu who was not far away, and found that she was staring at her with resentment, and felt puzzled.
